• Ratio needed: 1:1 mole ration of CO: H2
  • The reaction to create the propionaldehyde will take place at 300 C (572 F) and 100 bar (1450 psi)
  • Weight ratio calculated:
    • 11340 tonne CO, 3116 lb/hr
    • 816.4 tonne H2, 225 lb/hr
  • Impurities needed to be removed:
    • N2: minimum amount desired
    • Sulphur: maximum amount we can take: <5ppm/6hr
  • Team Echo doesnt mind if the syngas is pressurized
  • The oxidation reaction will take place at 100 C (212F) and 7 bar (100 psi) and will use oxygen as the oxidizing agent and will utilize Cobalt Halide to catalyze the reaction
